Couple of questions for anyone who can help

Featured Replies

At the moment I'm using the night terrain textures from GE Pro. I'm not too keen on them, and was wondering if there are any recommendations for alternative night time textures, preferably with more subtle lighting for urban areas?Also, I got myself a new laptop to run FS on last month with an Nvidia graphics card. I've been getting some pretty annoying "shimmering" or "swimming" terrain and scenery textures in the middle and far distance. What are the recommended driver settings to maintain sharp textures but avoid the shimmering effect?Thanks in advance for any help.PS - Great to see the FS9 community still going very strong after the release of FSX!

Night textures is the one area where add-on developers have failed to produce any real advancement over the default. The two products which are most often mentioned as replacement night textures are GE/GE Pro (but you have that already) and Zinertek

Try Settings -> Hardware -> Mip-Mapping at 4 or 5, and Hardware-rendered Lights at 6 or 7.
